Comments: Kathleen, I certainly hope you are doing better and maybe got to come home from Baylor over the weekend. My one night in the hospital made me realize that I really didn't want to be there. Hey, Dan, what's the lake level at Pat Mayse? Haven't been up there in 20 years. I'll bet it has really changed.
Comments: Here I am up in Paris whith the doors and windows wide open these past few weeks.took th dog swimming yesterday in the lake so I decided to go fishing late last evening. Got 15 bites in 20 minutes. 1 bass and 14 Mosquitos.of course I didn't wear repellant I didn't think the little critters would be out so soon. Wrong again,hello bug spray!
Comments: Ladies, thank you for the b-day greets. Kathleen, you've got a lot on your plate to deal with. I hope the docs can patch you up and the rest of the year gets much better for you.
Comments: Happy Birthday John. You and my mother share the same birthday. I am still in Baylor Hospital, I hope the doctor will let me go home tomorrow. This has been a tough week. I seem to be having minor strokes. I had a blood clot in my big toe and a clot in my left eye. I have been praying that my vision in that eye comes back. I know some of you do a lot of praying, so please pray for me.
Comments: If I'm reading your post correctly, Happy Birthday, John!
Comments: John, "Party On" till the hour comes, ha! Funny I don't feel any different on the inside, until I look in a mirror, yikes!
Comments: Harriet, SOME of us are only 69. (at least for 8 more hours)
Comments: I pray for healing for all our S.O.C. family. Maybe when the weather starts staying warm everyone will get better. Danny, we will send you a reminder when it is time for the 70th BD Party in the Fall, don't want you to miss coming. I hope we are all doing well and can enjoy another get together!! I still can't believe we are 70, hard to comprehend.
Comments: All on the sick front...bless you. Get well soon!
Comments: Kathleen I will be saying a Prayer for you very soon. You start believing that all your health issues are all going to get completely better. God Bless you.

Comments: Kathleen, so sorry to hear about your health issues. I will be adding you to my prayer list. It is getting longer and longer.
Comments: Sorry about the double posts but my computer kept telling me to enter the letters shown.
Comments: I have been in Baylor Hospital since Tuesday due to a severe reaction to an antibiotic which caused my blood pressure to drop and may have caused a blood clot in my big toe. My heart rhythm is also irregular. I am now taking a blood thinner and other meds to control a possible infection in a heart valve. I do dialysis several times a day and I have two IV'S in my arm. I am also having to do all kinds of lab tests. I keep begging them to let me go home . Please pray for me to go home soon and this condition not to be serous. Right now it looks like it might be at least five more days. Good luck to you Sharon and you are wise to be cautious with the antibiotics.

Comments: Hooray for Israelis PM, B.B. Netanhahu for those who have missed this Act of God putting Barack Obama in his place. there is Hope, & there always is hope of God always supporting Israel.Don't Mess With Israel, Obama
Comments: Am still running fever. Went to the doctor Monday afternoon and he wanted to prescribe another antibiotic. I said "NO". I've taken three different scrips, each one stronger than the last and I can't seem to shake whatever it is that I've got. I know it's not catching because Steve and my mom are fine. I'm going to tough it out for at least a week to see if it will get better on its own. If not, I have a feeling I'm going to be doing a lot of lab work. Has anyone heard from Elaine Amos Gentry? I can't find her number but I'll keep looking.
Comments: Danny, Best wishes in this time of your life. We all have challenges and we support and pray for one another. Houston has warm weather but is still raining his week. The trees are flowering. Maybe our wild flowers are not far behind and will be out soon.
Comments: Peaches , it is good to hear your Mother Is receiving good loving care. Since my "minor stroke" in Nov. 2024, I forget a lot of things, I get sad & cry a little. I Pray a lot. turning 70 has not set well with me, healthwise. I have lost 30 pounds. Linda is taking great care of me. It is a real Joy to me to read our SOC Website.What a Void in our lives it would be not to have this Blessed group to share & receive the Love that is shown on this site. I Thank all of you for all the Love & concern you all post. I missed the last two annual Christmas Parties because I forget them. Now that Hurt!!

Comments: Q Peaches, I know what you are going through. It was one of the hardest times of my life to,watch my parents decline. Thank you for sharing your journey...as hard as it is, it helps us know That it is a ,part of life's journey. Sharon, I'm so sorry to Learn oF YOUR illness and hospital stay. I'm glad you are home and hope this finds you MUCH BETTER. Kathleen, I hope all stays well with you and your treatment. This must be very hard but thankfully there is help for you.
Comments: Every time I get stopped up I use the Netipot. It looks like a small teapot and you put warm salt in it and pour the salt water through one side of your nostril then repeat in the other nostril. It is amazing the way it opens you up. Good luck Sharon! I hope you feel better soon.
Comments: Sharon, the hospital is no place to be sick! I was coughing at night recently till I got a cheap vaporizer from Walmart. It has made all the difference in the world. I hope you feel better soon. Being "slightly sick" for a long time can really take a toll.
Comments: I am sick and tired of being sick and tired! First day back to the office since last Wednesday. I've been sick for over a month and can't shake whatever this is. Have been on two different antibiotics, steroids and inhalers, but ended up in the emergency room last Saturday. When they couldn't get my fever down from 101.6, they admitted me. My first hospital stay since 1975 - OMG. I was seriously afraid that they would have to give me a blood transfusion to replace all that they drew out. Luckily, got to come home late Sunday afternoon after no fever for 8 hours. Also, the doctor deemed me to be a "responsible" patient who would follow up with my personal doctor to get the reports from all the tests. No fever since Sunday morning but still can't breathe well. Sure hope this last round of medicine does the trick. We've got to stay healthy, people.
Comments: Correction: Sorry to offend the Class of '64. Charlie Brooks is a member of the Class of 1965. And, NO, I won't be accompanying CB to see MMM.
Comments: News from Oak Cliff: My good pal Charlie Brooks (Cl of '64) rang me up to say he scored two tickets to the March 14th performance of Michael M. Murphee (sp?) at the Kessler. Tickets were a reasonable $24 each. He was encouraged to upgrade to the VIP pass which gets you an hour backstage with MMM and a chance to wish him Happy Birthday in person. Only an extra $100 for the upgrade ... (where is my wallet?). Charlie opted to just post his b-day greetings on FaceBook. Lake Palestine News: From the "Dang, that Hurt" Dept. comes word that our Ronny Jarman suffered major dental damage from a post hole drilling auger that launched out of control. Knocked him six feet backwards, broke out 4 front teeth and damaged an existing lower partial plate. Scheduled for major repair work on Weds. in Tyler. He asks that we NOT send any Peanut Brittle.
Comments: Peaches, I am doing well. I am still doing home dialysis, which except for a 30 minute afternoon drain is done at night. I am still praying that some day I will be able to get a kidney transplant. I also do physical therapy three times a week. Like the rest of you, I just hope the weather warms up and the sun comes out. My brother, Roe called me early this morning from Dekalb and said they were under water because it has rained so much there.
Comments: Kathleeen, how are you doing?
Comments: Kathleen, it is very difficult to see my mother not being able to move herself or eat anything. However, it gives her comfort for me to be there. That is one of the few joys she has left in life and I am committed. I treasue every minute I am the room with her even if she is sleeping. She is as sweet as ever and never complains.
Comments: You are a wonderful daughter to visit your mother every day. I always had a hard time visiting my parents when my parents were so ill. It was hard for me to see them so ill. May God bless you and your mother.
Comments: Thank you Charlotte and Lynell. Her body is strong evidentally. We have been very fortunate she does not have any bed sores. The aids get her out of bed once a day and she goes to her recliner for a hour or two. She never says much (but mother never was a big talker) but she is aware I am there. |
